The only thing that makes me not sad about this movie but that there isn't a part in it for Ian McDiarmid.

It would have been nice to see him get a cameo as Palpatine one last time even if it was for one scene towards the end when Vader reports that the Death Star Plans have been stolen.

for me it would have been nice for a couple of reasons. First of all Ian is not getting any younger and it might be a while before the movies swing back to an Imperial versus Rebels storyline again. Second of all because Ian is a huge fan and very enthusiast about Star Wars and the character of Palpatine. And third of all because even though the Prequels were a bit of a dissapointment, his portrayal of Palpatine is just amazing both pre and post butt head look.
